Archive for ‘When Weird Things Happen to Weird People’

On Saturday, March 19, I attended SPACE (Small Press and Alternative Comics Expo) and got to see my cartoonist amigo Gordon McAlpin. This strip is almost word-for-word a conversation that we had about not going hungry at cons. You can check out some more about the cool cartoonists I met at the con in this blogpost.

Josh Cramer is a sales rep for MRC Innovations, a company that provides packaging and other manufacturing solutions. Josh was one of the first outside guys I met when I started my Purchasing Rockstar tenure in ’09, and he’s been consummately helpful. He’s also, like the comic says, a huge packaging nerd–every time I see him, he has a new story about the packaging he’s coming up with to meet his customers’ weird shipping challenges. If your company has unusual packaging needs, particularly shipping perishable goods or suchlike, Josh and the crew at MRC will be glad to tackle the task.

We are wearing neckties because this strip was originally going to be posted last Friday, and of course Friday is Tie Day Friday.

This comic idea comes to you courtesy of Ash Green, of AshGreen.net. LawsuitPool is a parody of a parody, and his name comes from readers placing bets in a “lawsuit pool” as to how long until Marvel makes me take this strip down.

Basically I don’t even write original material anymore. Tune in next week for Prinny Week.
